In fact, EARLY in ROM's...I remember those ads.<br /><br />In fact, EARLY in ROM's published history, when the earlier (bottom one) was running (and the first ad where he's flying right AT the reader) I had a project to make a metal box in my junior high shop class, and I painted those poses on the inside of the 2 boxes that I made.<br /><br />As for the latter ad (the top one) it always upset me that Ditko refused to draw either Spider-Man or Doctor Strange in that issue (where EVERY OTHER HERO makes an appearance).<br /><br />He swore never to draw them ever again and he stuck to his word.<br />It irks me that we missed a then-modern rendition of his two most famous Marvel characters, but I have to respect the man for it.<br /><br /><br />As for tomorrow's post...<br />I'M HERE!<br />I'm WAITING! I'm WAITING!<br /><br />;-)~P~https://www.blogger.com/profile/09299078564477985626noreply@blogger.com
